The original idea started with two cups, a princess bride discussion and him knocking over the cups and declaring them both poison.

Then the three cups would be brought out and presented in the same fashion as the riddle linked. Aloysius would have discovered the flaw in Jimmy's logic and switched cups, thinking he had a 2/3 chance to be right.

The problem was Jimmy knew he would figure it out, so he rigged it. By making two of the cups normal (one poison, one regular), and the third an anymug filled with a poison that Jimmy was immune to, he ensured his victory. No matter what Aloysius picked, Jimmy would always end up not drinking the poison.

SPOILERS:Guys, seriously seriously hard to judge match this round. Pretty much every single bracket was decided by one or two points; and in every single round at least one judge thought some one should have won, so you were all some bodies favourite.

for the four of you tasting defeat, I'm really terribly sorry that you can't all be winners.. however I may have an idea for a bonus round if anyone is interested.

for the four progressing, get ready. Semi finals come out after this post.

SPOILERS:Tasty People+2 Charisma: Tasty People have strong natural pheromones.-2 Wisdom: Tasty People have a racial predisposition for making bad decisions.When faced with an encounter involving a predatory creature, a Tasty Person must make a Charisma Check. If the DC (15) is met, the creature will attack the Tasty Person to the exclusion of other targets who are not also Tasty People who have met this DC. The DC should be modified for monsters with a strong sense of smell, I leave this to your discretion as a DM. The monster is not forced to attack the Tasty Person if doing so would cause it to take an attack of opportunity.A Tasty Person's starting class should be treated as his favored class.

I may or may not have written most of my story after watching the NFL playoffs... Where there might have been a chance that I could have hypothetically maybe-kinda had a drink that may or may not have had something that some could claim might probably impact my writing ability.

Possibly, but I believe further testing with the aforementioned drink may be necessary. FOR SCIENCE!

Done. Mostly worked on between the hours of 11pm and midnight, I can only pray that the narrative can make up for the mistakes I know I've made, since I didn't really get to proofread it. Editing? Pah!
